Re: Hook in the Hull ??
" back in the day ", early outboard powered boats were designed so that the "driver" had his weight to stbd to counteract the torque of a standard-rotation engine. Thats why all the old starcrafts, woodsons, North Americans, glasspars, etc. were set up like a British car instead of what the "Americans" were used to...remember cables and pulleys and "take-up" springs?
